Digital Object Identifiers

Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) are persistent identifiers which can be used to consistently and accurately reference digital objects and/or content. The DOIs provide a way for the ADS resources to be cited in a similar fashion to traditional scholarly materials. More information on DOIs at the ADS can be found on our help page.

Citing this DOI

DOIs should be the last element in a citation irrespective of the format used. The DOI citation should begin with "doi:" in lowercase followed by the DOI with no spaces between the ":" and the DOI.

doi:10.5284/1000306

DOIs can also be cited as a persistent link from another Web page. This is done by appending the DOI Resolver with the DOI. This would look like:

http://dx.doi.org/10.5284/1000306

However, if it is possible it is best to hide the URL in the href property of the <a> tag and have the link text be of the form doi:10.5284/1000306. The HTML for this would look like:

<a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.5284/1000306">doi:10.5284/1000306</a>

Introduction

The Aggregate Extraction and Geoarchaeological Heritage of the Ribble Valley and Kirkham Moraine was an Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund project that studied the potential impact of aggregate extraction on the archaeological resource of two areas in Lancashire, England: the Ribble Valley (2005-2007) and the Kirkham Moraine (2007-2008).

The two studies forming this project were jointly undertaken by Oxford Archaeology North and the University of Liverpool Geography Department, funded by the ALSF and under the overall management of English Heritage. The University of Liverpool undertook the geological and geomorphological elements of the studies, OA North undertook the archaeological elements, and the palaeobotanical elements were undertaken jointly.The research formed a patnership project with English Heritage, the Environment Agency, Lancashire County Council, North Yorkshire County Council and the Aggregate Industry the key stakeholders.
